The disclosure relates to a viewing optic. In one embodiment, the disclosure relates to a display system for a viewing optic. In one embodiment, the disclosure relates to a viewing optic having a display system with multiple active displays for generating images that are projected into a first focal plane of an optical system.

It comprises optical assemblies that focus light onto individual first optical fibers which are combined together in a final single optical fiber, collecting a considerable amount of light from a target, to feed an instrument such as a spectrograph. The first optical fibers are kept centred on the target through image devices that also provide images, and these images can be combined to give rise to a high-quality image of the field surrounding the target. The final effective aperture of the device is scalable, using different numbers of optical assemblies and depending on their diameters.

An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), a beam redirection system, and a method for redirecting a laser beam using one or more UAVs are provided. The UAV includes a housing, a beam deflector, and a vehicle controller. The beam deflector is mounted to the housing. The vehicle controller is configured to control an angular orientation of the beam deflector to redirect a laser beam that is received from an off-board laser source.

An anamorphic three-element objective lens projects a plurality of beams of different wavelengths and different diameters into an elongated focal spot in a working-plane. In one transverse direction of the lens, the beams are tightly focused with equal beam-waist widths in the working-plane, defining a height of the focal spot. In another transverse direction, the different beams are focused progressively beyond the working-plane such that the beams have a common beam-width in the working-plane, thereby defining a width of the focal spot.

A detachable supplementary viewing accessory for a scope device is shown and described. The accessory has a beam splitter and is mounted in-line with a first optical path of the accessory so that ordinary viewing may be performed with the scope. A reflected second beam travels along a second optical path to be accessible to a camera or other external image using device which may be held by a dock which is part of the accessory. Distance from the dock to the beam splitter is adjustable to assure a good image is available at the dock. The accessory has a variable geometry mount for accommodating scopes of different configurations. The mount may have a saddle to stabilize seating on the scope.
